More Than This Lyrics

Artist: Vanessa Carlton
Album: Heroes & Thieves

Cradling stones hold fire brightAs crickets call out to the moonlightAs you lean in to steal a kissI'll never need more than this

We all share the pain of our historiesBut the ache goes away if you could seeThis night under stars, well, I call it peaceIf you say, I'll never need more than this

The trees grow so thickYou can barely see throughBut the forest bestows the simplest of truthsYou think you'll be happy if granted one more wishBut the truth is you'll never need more,You'll never need moreYou'll never need more than this

Want so much in this life,There's so much to beWe sail through our youth so impatientlyUntil we seeThat the years move alongAnd soldiers and heroes come homeAnd they carry a song,

Don't live in forgotten timesMay this always remind youOf the sea under the skies blue looking glassLet's make this our story, let's live in the gloryTime, it fades away,Precious as a songCause someday we'll be gone

Cradling stones hold fire brightAs we watch the glow of the morning lightSomeday our bones here they will lie, and so we sing

As the years move along and soldiers and heroes come homeAnd they carry a songLet's make this our story,Let's live in the gloryTime, it fades away,Precious as a songCause someday we'll be gone
